Term1/15
Put the steps of the nitrogen cycle in order starting with the step that removes nitrogen from the atmosphere
Definition1/15

N2 molecules break apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Other living entities such as plants and animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing compounds. Organic matter decays via decomposers.

N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.

What is the difference of the causes between a sea breeze and a land breeze
Definition1/15

The only difference - is the direction of flow. A sea breeze blows from the sea onto the land. A land breeze flows in the opposite direction.
